Property is moderate renovation needed.
This 1926 property is well-maintained but shows clear signs of its age. While the interior has been refreshed with paint and recessed lighting, the kitchen is dated with older black appliances and a mix of painted cabinetry. The exterior stucco shows staining and wear, and the original wood windows and fixtures suggest that while the home is functional, it has not undergone a comprehensive renovation in recent decades, fitting the 'fair' criteria of being aged but maintained through regular upkeep.
Built in 1926, this residence preserves its original charm and timeless architectural details, offering a level of character and craftsmanship rarely found in newer constructions.
The property boasts exceptional access to the 2, 134, and 5 freeways, providing a central hub for seamless travel throughout Los Angeles and surrounding valleys.
With 4 bedrooms and 1,750 square feet of living area, the home provides a versatile and spacious layout that is highly desirable for families in the Glendale market.
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1750, other record living area = 1550.
Due to its 1926 construction date, the home may require specialized maintenance or future upgrades to aging systems such as plumbing, electrical, or insulation.
While the proximity to three major freeways is a logistical benefit, it may result in persistent ambient traffic noise that could affect the quiet enjoyment of the outdoor spaces.
